ATP- I'll be your mirror curated by MOGWAI

Not this coming Sunday, or next Sunday, or the Sunday after that, but the Sunday after that one, I will be attending ATP's I'll be your mirror, curated by Mogwai, and headlined by a reformed Afghan Whigs. This is a gig that I didn't really think I'd be at all excited about, seeing as I originally booked the tickets because Guided By Voices were headlining, but GBV being GBV, decided to cancel at the very last minute, leaving me and many other Guided By Voices fanatics dissapointed by the fact that we can't see our hero's play their first gig in the UK since 2003.

I almost considered selling my ticket...


However after hearing THIS incredibly beautiful tune:

It's safe to say that my excitement levels are literally going through the roof. The Afghan Whigs are one of those few bands that I listen to where I get more and more into on each listen.  I will be giving a full review of the bands that I see that day, and will hopefully have a some pics to share to you as well!
